Subject: [Arlington Birds] Horn Pond Saturday, April 19
This morning 18 birders joined me on a joint Menotomy Bird Club and
Brookline Bird Club walk at Horn Pond in Woburn, as a group we tallied 44
species. Highlights included a cooperative male Yellow-bellied Sapsucker
in brilliant plumage - quite possibly the best combination of lighting,
plumage, and longevity at eye level I've come across in 30 years of birding
- and the looks and vocalization of the Ruby-crowned Kinglets. There was a
report of a Louisiana Waterthrush at the pond, but we were not fortunate
enough to catch up with it.
